I still don't understand why you don't get my point. You were upset that she attacked him verbally and yet the guy made a living out of doing exactly just that to others. It is a point of 2 wrongs don't make a right. I never said I agreed with what she did either but I did imply it was the lesser crime. I do believe that Manning was the worst of the two down to what his material was made out of. He admitted himself that he was racist and I am not sorry that I don't like him (didn't like him in the 70's either) but I've never liked Ahernes shows either. And for him, if you live by the sword, you die by the sword and he is no position to dislike the dose of medicine he received as it's what he gave out to others.
And I didn't call you a racist, not at all. I was amused that your level of acceptability was different to mine, that you were 'siding' if you like with the person who was less civil and kind in his material. Did that make you a racist? Not necessarily, it meant you liked one person more than the other and that as you pointed out, was your opinion.
It's been you who has been more hot-headed in your responses, and am afraid you are looking into things that aren't there. I never called you a racist, I called Manning a racist. If you find his humour funny then that's up to you and if you jumped to the conclusion that it made it sound like I am calling you a racist then......
